Eros the bittersweet : an essay


Description


A lyrical exploration of the concept of "eros" in ancient Greek philosophy and literature. Beginning with the poet Sappho’s invention of the word “bittersweet” to describe Eros, Carson’s original and beautifully written book is a wide-ranging reflection on the conflicted nature of romantic love, which is both “miserable” and “one of the greatest pleasures we have.”.
